10. The city's elevation is 15.3 feet

Airida [17]3 years ago

The elevation of the city is between -15 and -16

Step-by-step explanation:

The Earth surface is highly uneven. Hence for relative comparison, scientist over the world assume the sea level as the reference point (meaning that sea level is considered to be at 0 elevation and all other elevations and depths are calculated regarding the sea level)

As given in the question city’s elevation is 15.3 feet below sea level. Hence the city is below the sea level by 15.3 feet

On the mathematical scale below 0 would mean the number system is negative. Similarly, the city is located at -15.3 feet when compared to sea level which is at 0 feet.

Hence -15.3 would lie between -15 and -16

Binomial theorem Expand (5 - y)3
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

(5 - y) ^3 = 125 - 75y + 15y^2 - y^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial expression

1

1. 1

1. 2. 1

1. 3. 3. 1 --------power of 3

( 5 - y) ^3

( 5 - y) (5 - y) (5 - y)

( a + b) ^3 = a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3

a = 5

b = -y

( 5 - y) ^2 = ( 5 - y) (5 - y)

= 5( 5 - y) - y(5 - y)

= 25 - 5y - 5y + y^2

=(25-10y+y^2)

( 25 - 10y + y^2)( 5 - y)

= 5(25 - 10y + y^2) - y( 25 - 10y + y^2)

= 125 - 50y + 5y^2 - 25y + 10y^2 - y^3

Collect the like terms

= 125 - 50y - 25y + 5y^2 + 10y^2 - y^3

= 125 - 75y + 15y^2 - y^3

Can someone please answer this???? ASAP

Answer:

A. y=-\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{18}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y=mx+b be the equation of the perpendicular line.

Two perpendicular lines have slopes with product equal to -1. The slope of the given line is \frac{7}{8} Hence,

\dfrac{7}{8}\cdot m=-1\\ \\m=-\dfrac{8}{7}

is the slope of needed line.

This line passes through the point (-4,2), so its coordinates satisfy the equation:

2=-\dfrac{8}{7}\cdot (-4)+b\\ \\b=2-\dfrac{32}{7}=-\dfrac{18}{7}

Therefore, the equation of the line is

y=-\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{18}{7}
